U) INTRODUCTION
The data in this collection has been pothered from
muny reliable sources. It is rather meagre for such a
largo family as the Graham family. L complete Genealogy •
of the Graham family would comprise probably over a thou¬
sand or two thousand pages and would cost several thousand
dollars.
We have aimed to include in this small volume such
material of a general character as would be of thG greatest int¬
rust and importance to the average member of the family.
No attempt is made at an indGx, but if the reader will
peruse all chapters of the volume, he (or she) will find
much data oi interest. See Chapter (3) re the Coat of .Arms.
UnlGss otherwise plainly shown, the persons in this
volume who bear a number of three figures, arc sons of
the immediately preceding persons bearing proceeding con¬
secutive numbers, accompanied by the same latter of the
alphabet, .All persons in the same group, beaming the
sane letter as o part of the number, are related.
The generations of the descendants of Grahams bear¬
ing numbers of three figures arc- represented as follows-.

The name "Graham" was originally "Graeme 11 • Many
mGmbors of the family still spell the name "GraGmo, "
and some write it "Grahamo except in a very few cases,
wg make no attempt to include any but "Grahams" in this

uoyt complete and reliable of thG various accounts that
arc given;
"GRAHAM, GRAEME; It on the Anglo-Saxon, Grin*
Dutch, Grimm; German, Grimm; Welsh, Grom, Gaelic,
Grauiu; me ailing "surlGy, sullen, dark, having a
i ieroe ana stern look, courageous."
It is believed that all the Grahams, Graemes end
urahames, excepting those who (or who^c ancestors) hove
ad opt yd the name, are related, though opinions differ
on this point. Sec Chapter (L) i or an estimate of thG
number oi Grahams and descendants in the United States.
The Graham family is among the "best families."
It is a very ancient family, its members have distin¬
guished themselves in the affairs oi the various coun¬
tries where they have lived.
All who claim the name and blood of' GRAHAM have
just cause to .be proud.

Sir Barnard Burke, of lie raids College, London, said
’’Heraldry is prized by all who con show honorable ances¬
try, or who wish to found honorable families."
WhilG Coats of Inns ore net recognized by lav/ in
the United States, morG American families than ever be¬
fore or,, adopting Coots of i.rms used by their forebears
in Ruropc ane are using them on their stationery and dis¬
playing them on th^ walls of their homes, etc.
The Graham Coat of j,rms shown on the cover of this
volume was first U3td by the family of SIR RICHARD GiUHLM
(S« u *C144, page 7 ), Member of isrliament, v/ho v/es created
a Baronet, March £9, 16£9. Several branches of the Graham
family havG used this Coat of Arms, or other i;rms similar
to 1 1 *
This i.rms is described in Reference 5 (BURKU’S LLUD-
LD GR1JTRY) and in numerous other reliable works on Herald¬
ry, as follows-, and accompanied sometimes by drawings*
^rr;.s; Quarterly, 1st end 4th or (gold); on a chief sable
. (black), 5 escallops cf the lield; £nd and 3rd or
(g eld ) . a f o 38 chequy argent (silver) and. azure
(blue ) ; in chief a chevron gules (red).
Cre st ; Two wings or (gold ) ,
Motto; Reason contents me,
Busidus its family significance, the Graham Coat
of krms, especially when produced in full bright colors,
mekos an excellent mural decoration and inspires tho ad¬
miration and comment of all v/ho see it.
iis an emblem of family prj.do as well as a v/ork of
art, we believe that every Graham- should have a copy of
the Graham i.rms on the wall of his (or her) home or of-
ficG, Many prominent members o.» the Cr oh am family in
America have asked us tc produce copies for them.

I 07/n if and adhere to it. Bishops I can not for them. I
never intended to advance their interests. But when the- king
has granted you all your desires, and you were every one sitting
under his vine and under his fig-tree, that then you should have
taken a party in Bngiand by the hand, ana entered i&to a league
and covenant with thuin against the king, was the thing I judged
my duty to oppose to the yondmost." On May 21, 1650, Montrose,
dressed "in his red scarlet cassock," was hanged in the Grass-
market. The indignation of the boots against Montrose v/as
chi'-ily roused by the slaughter ci their countrymen by his fol¬
lowers. He said in defence that no one was killed exc^t in bat¬
tle, This v/as net strictly true, as there was much slaughter
after the capture of Aberdeen, by the soldiers, though Montrose
claimed that he was Arabic to re-strain his "unpaid" soldiers,
iiontrosc was a ; oct as well es a warrior and statesman. His
poems have a political purpose and had a vigor v/hich would have
given them life apart from the intention with which they v/erc
written.

(F ) AMERICAN GRAHAM FAMILIES.
Whilo q vast amount of Genealogical material on the
British Graham families is available, a 3mall part of which
is included in this volume, it is apparent that no attempt
has ever been made to publish a complete Genealogy of thc-
Graham families of America.
Since many Graham, families established themselves
in the United States (Colonics) long before tho American
Revolution, and since they and their descendants have played
an important role in public affairs, there is considerable
data available for a complete "GRAHAM GENEALOGY." However,
much of this material is "disconnected," including date
in the vital statistics of the original colonies, etc.
To gethGr all this data and publish it in a singlG volume,
or in a set of volumes, would cost several thousand dollars.
However, a complete "GRAHAM GENEALOGY" may be published by
the American Historical-Genealogical Society, with the co¬
operation of members of thG Graham Family, at some time
in the future. SeG Chapter (0).

lor several centuries nearly all the Grahams lived
in ocotland. Most oi the scotch, one', likewise, the Gra¬
hams, wore and arc of the 1 rc sbyterian faith.
± rocticolly all the Grahams who went irom Scotland
to the north of Ireland, and their descendants, remained
xre-sbyterians.
The descendants of. some oi the Grahams who went •
lrom Scotland to England became members of the Church of
England .
There were a few Grahams of the Catholic faith, in
the British Isles, but it is estimated that their numb¬
er die. not exceed two per cent of the entire Graham pop¬
ulation.
'The Grahams who came from the British Isles to
America continued in the faith oi their fathers, for
the most part, though their descendants in this county
today will be found ‘in the memberships oi prectically
all the various churches. It is estimated that of all
the Grahams in America who are church members, at least
ninety-seven percent are of the lrotestant faith.

There is a great*. -uterest in Gcnoa'iemy in ^acriva today
than there ever was 6v.-ci oio,. ,Uv. declare that "Gent.*
alogy^de stine d to play an ,.i.vcrtant pari i.i the Bocialixa-
tion of the American ; eop]o, ~a.,.und Burks said "reople will
not look forward to posterity who never look backward to an¬
cestors. There are racrG important reasons today then ever
before for keeping genealogical records.
V/c dare say it gives you a feeling of pride to read these
lev/ pages regarding your family* We believe the traditions,
ideals and standards of the GRAHAM family should be a source
of pride to all who claim the name and blood of Graham.
Many American families have quite complete published
Genealogies. Considerable has been published on the British
Graham families, but apparently no attempt has ever been
made to publish a Genealogy of "THE GRAHAM I .AMI LIES CiE AMERICA."
A great amount of Graham data is available in government
records and in the vital statistics of the various states,
particularly of the original colonies; as v/c- 11 as in numerous
other sources. This material is, however, "disconnected . n
If a general research were conducted, enough material could
doubtless be assembled, and properly "connected," to com¬
prize a large volume. A number oi members of the Graham
family have rather complete private collections of mater¬
ial on their respective branches oi the family.
The compiler of "GRAHAM I'ALILY RECORDS" and his associates
would be interested in undertaking to produce a complete "GRA¬
HAM GENEALOGY" if some member of the Graham^™ Od be found
with sufficient interest in the cause to help finance it.
" GIlt.il AM I- AivJLY ASSOCIATION"
There are a number of American families which are organized
in permanent family associations. Most of them include a small
circle of known relatives, rarely exceeding £00 or 300 in number
There are nearly 300,000 Grahams and Graham descendants in the
Enited Stetes (Sec Chapter ( L ) ) • While they may not all be close
ly related, they do have a common name and traditions, and it
is believed that if the facts were known, nearly all of them
could be properly connected with tho "main lines" of the family.
It is believed that a great many of the Grahams would be inter¬
ested in joining such an association.
Such an association should have a .c onstitut i on and by-laws,
a staff of officers and should serve the following purposos:

Many American families hold x e unions regularly every
year, most of them bein oi a local character, and the at¬

Local Graham family reunions have boen held annually
